It is said that in the near future a
motion will be introduced in the city
council favoring a yearly donation of
twenty-five dollars to each of the fire
companies for incidental expenses. In
view of the fact that each company
needs fully that much for incidental ex
penses each year, and that such money
has heretofore come from the pockets of
the members,, it would seem only fair
that the council donate this amount.

recompense in being in n volunteer tire
department. The members not only
devote much time, but during the year
several members ruin their clothes while
at fires and burn out their boots or shoes.
From a financial point of view every
member of the department is a loser.

have flocked to him, but they have come
from all p?rts of thp state and frQtn

many ouros have been made and bis be.
